Out-of-the-Box Icebox
Reinforced with scrap pallet wood and laid horizontally with its doors facing up, a dead fridge gets a new life in the yard as a rustic-looking cooler. With the addition of rope catches to help keep its lid open, the old freezer compartment becomes a prime spot to stash cold beverages, while the other section can be filled with condiments and snacks or used as a prep or serving station. Heavy-duty metal handles on both compartments, along with casters affixed to the base, make this hefty warm-weather essential more portable.
